Jeanskynebu the audience applauded

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

matthewjoseph-54651 Amelie is a great French movie combining the playful and eccentric nature so often deployed by period films when they're played out for fun. Audrey tatou is perfect for the titular character and the French capital has rarely looked as lovely. This film causes a stir when it was released in 2001 and you should have a look to see why. The dark comedic element, eccentric nature of the scenes and some great acting by Tatou should encourage you to do so.

feralasar I watched this movie a long time ago, but from what I remember from watching this movie I didn't care for it. Like it was just boring to me, and nothing of interest ever happened. And maybe it's just me as I can't STAND live action sex scenes in movies due personal reasons, but were those scenes really necessary; It's like they were just added for no other reason other than to make the movie not a disney movie honestly. About the only good thing I can say about this movie is at least amelie was a decent, and likable character; other than that this movie was a pass to me.

paulclaassen A feel-good movie everyone should see! The film conveys a positive message that leaves you feeling warm inside. This was an absolute pleasure to watch, and quite frankly, they type of film I can watch again and again because it just makes you feel so good! Brilliant acting. Brilliant plot, excellently executed. Audrey Tautou is at her best!

khnerostar The story of this film is about the life of a girl named Amélie Poulain who one day she meets a boy in a really strange way. During all the film, Amélie will try to find that boy again and learn what love is, but in a very unusual way. I would like to say that this film is a piece of art and that, without any doubts, it is my favourite film.Even though the film is telling a daily life story, it is not told in an usual way. The mechanism in which the film is based to tell the story and to show all the scenes seems awesome to me, everything happens like if we were looking at a production chain in a factory. Also, the fact that the story is that unusual and funny, make this even better as we do not expect at all what is going to happen again.Furthermore, the fact that the story is not told neither by Amélie nor by a normal narrator but by a narrator who knows more than us and predicts what is going to happen, is one of the best points of this film. At some points during the film, the narrator says what is going to happen in the next few seconds or even in other scenes so, it is funny to know more or less funny to be watching a movie which seems like a realistic novel where we are even inside the head of the characters. Also, at some points, Amélie interacts with the narrator, giving us a more unrealistic feeling.
